[edit] Articles on individual amendments

[edit] Naming

Some of the current amendment articles are now actually quite good, such asUnited States Constitution/Amendment Twelve. However, I think we should get rid of the subpages. However, there are some options for the new name, and I don't know which one is the best:

1. Amendment Twelve of the United States Constitution
2. Amendment 12 of the United States Constitution
3. Twelfth Amendment of the United States Constitution
4. 12th Amendment of the United States Constitution

Any suggestions? Jeronimo

The more famous ammendments should simply be at First Amendment, Twelfth Amendment and the like, unless there is any need to disambiguate, in which case I'd go with the third format above: Twelfth Amendment of the United States Constitution. (I came here just to say that the subpages should be renamed, so I'm glad someone's already raised it :) -- Sam

Of doesn't sound right to me. I vote for Twelfth Amendment to the United States Constitution. Tokerboy

IMO option 3 is best for all. "First Amendment" and other famous ones, could redirect to the longer titles. But each one should be named using the same convention in order to reduce confusion lest somebody erroneously links to a not-so-famous Amendment via the shortened syntax. --mav

I agree "to" is even better. --mav
